Yes, I am a true redneck but also a long time David Bowie fan. I bought vinyl albums of "The Man Who Sold The World" and all his other early works I could find. My neighbors in the U.S.A.F. barracks hated my guts when I followed instructions on "The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust & The
Spiders From Mars". I know many of you are too young to have seen and read them... "To be played at maximum volume".
I've spent the past few days cranking some of my favorite DB music and watching "The Man Who Fell To Earth" & "Labyrinth", reliving some great memories of a great human being.
What was that old song, "If There's a Rock & Roll Heaven, You Know They've Got A Hell Of A Band"? Well, if there is a R&R Heaven they just added another great talent to their line up.
Ziggy Stardust, The Thin White Duke... Rest In Peace and Rock On, David! Even some of us rednecks loved, still love and will always love you!
